You could get in touch with Greg K. in Ft. Pierce via PM to GK or through his website at: http://www.tckiteboard.com/

In north winds, the guys usually launch to the south of the south jetty for Ft. Pierce Inlet. The seas are calmer in there and a bit further out you get some nice waves from the inlet and reef areas.

Regarding Jupiter, you could get in touch with Jeremy at Jupiter Kiteboarding , http://jupiterkiteboarding.com/ Kite beach is located about 3/4 mile north of the Juno Beach fishing pier and well south of Jupiter Inlet. You can see a lot of photos of the launch area and conditions in the photo coverage of past Jupiter Kiteboard Invasion articles on this site.

Ft. Pierce may be a bit easier to get offshore as you have the protection of the inlet/jettys. Jupiter may have more of a heavy shorebreak in the predicted conditions. Rig well for the winds, ride safe and have fun!
